1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundDuring obesity, endothelial cells (ECs) become lipid laden, leading to endothelial dysfunction. We tested posttranslational modification on cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) that may regulate EC lipid accumulation.

methodsWe used an EC-specific Cav1 (caveolin-1) knockout mouse, nitrosation and palmitoylation assays, and whole animal Nγ-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester administration to examine blood lipids.

resultsEC-specific Cav1 knockout male mice are hyperlipidemic regardless of diet but retain endothelial cell function. We found these mice have significantly increased NO in response to the lack of Cav1, and the presence or absence of NO toggled inversely EC lipid content and plasma lipid in mice. The NO nitrosated the fatty acid translocase CD36 at the same cysteines that are palmitoylated on CD36. The nitrosation of CD36 prevented its trafficking to the plasma membrane and decreased lipid accumulation. The physiological effect of this mechanism was a reliance on NO for endothelial function and not dilation.

conclusionsThis work suggests that CD36 nitrosation occurs as a protective mechanism to prevent EC lipotoxicity.
